The story
Grand Epernay, at 1050 Caribbean Way in Miami, earned a Wine Spectator Best of Award of Excellence in 2025. Its kitchen draws on American, European and Mediterranean cooking, and it is listed among the main restaurants in Celebrity Cruises' onboard dining.
Wine Spectator first recognized Grand Epernay with an Award of Excellence in 2013. The Best of Award of Excellence followed in 2023 and again in 2025, a step up that points to a cellar list built with care over more than a decade. For anyone choosing a bottle to go with dinner, that record is the clearest sign of what to expect.
The menu spans American, European and Mediterranean dishes, and the restaurant is open for both lunch and dinner. The sources available do not name a chef or specific plates, so the cuisines themselves are the best guide to the table. Expect a broad, familiar range rather than a single regional focus.
